		<description>Katy, no problem.  Mistakes happen.

Sometimes news organizations update stories during the day.  Below are the first two paragraphs.  The first one is the same.  But the second went from a summary comment to a quote from Defense Minister Barak.  So it did change:

&lt;em&gt;Defense Minister Ehud Barak on Friday told visiting U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that Israel would not rule out any course of action to prevent Iran from attaining nuclear weapons. 

&quot;Israel is convinced Iran is trying to build a nuclear bomb,&quot; Barak told Rice,&quot; adding that Jerusalem &quot;is not taking any option off the table, and we don&#039;t recommend that others take any option off the table.&quot; &lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>No reporting of the race riots,...not that&#039;s not correct..
No reporting of the homosexual riots in California.
Wonder why?

Apparently these gatherings were more than protests because people were arrested.

Those arrests were not arrested because they were homosexuals. They were arrested because they were homosexual behaving illegally.

Will we be seeing more of these riots?

www.foxnews.com has a short report.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;President Obama has said that he wants to hear what we think. Maybe we should put together an effort to lobby him to ask Congress to replace both Pelosi and Reid.&lt;/em&gt;

That would be a terrific way to kick off his presidency :)</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;DRxJ Says: 

If abortion is such a big issue, why was nothing done between 2000 and 2006 when the Republicans were the majority in the Senate, the HOR, the executive branch, and the Supreme Court?

November 7th, 2008 at 10:22 am&lt;/i&gt;
_______

Because Republicans don&#039;t ACTUALLY want to do anything with abortion - it&#039;s their ace in the hole, a wedge issue that works every time to fire up the base and get their obedient sheep to vote for them once again.  If they actually succeed in overturning Roe, they&#039;d all be out of jobs.

It&#039;s kinda like a lapdog chasing a car - it may be a lot of fun to chase, but the dog&#039;s in big trouble if he actually catches the car.</description>

		<description>#29.  He was on the ballot and running for the position before his seven convictions.  The fact that Alaskans voted for the repulsive bastard AFTER his seven convictions actually says more about Alaskans than it does Stevens. Their re-election of Congressman Don Young and their 2006 election of Caribou Barbie only reinforce that.</description>

The fact that Alaskans voted for the repulsive bastard AFTER his seven convictions actually says more about Alaskans than it does Stevens. Their re-election of Congressman Don Young and their 2006 election of Caribou Barbie only reinforce that.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=5329760', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>Rice is in Israel, &lt;em&gt;Haaretz &lt;/em&gt;reported:

&lt;em&gt;Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Friday that &lt;strong&gt;Israel was convinced Iran is working toward creating an atomic bomb&lt;/strong&gt; while simultaneously deceiving the world by negotiating over supervision of its contentious nuclear program. 

In a meeting with visiting U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Barak also said &lt;strong&gt;Israel maintained its stance that options were on the table for dealing with this threat, including military action.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Barney, President Bush’s beloved Scottish terrier, may look cute and friendly, but watch out. Yesterday, Reuters reporter Jim Decker reached down to pet Barney, who then bit him. Watch the incident here. The LA Times writes, “Maybe Barney, a Scottish terrier, was fed up with liberal media bias.”
&lt;/i&gt;


I can hardly wait for the Obama&#039;s new pooch to shit and piss all over the legs of LA Times , FAUX , and other cancervative reporters .............And right away , too.</description>

		<description>I would like to share this story with ya&#039;ll:

Friends of ours told us that Wednesday, after Obama was elected President!!!, a first grader approached their Kindergartner son and said &quot;Welp, looks like your man is going to kill more babies!&quot;

Un-fcking-believable!

There is so much wrong with that, I don&#039;t know where to begin.  Since I heard about this last night, and since our friends contacted the mother and the issue was resolved (I think), I did bring up to them my question that I&#039;ve posed here and to my mother and other rightie tighties.  As of today, no one has giving me a true intelligent answer.

If abortion is such a big issue, why was nothing done between 2000 and 2006 when the Republicans were the majority in the Senate, the HOR, the executive branch, and the Supreme Court?

So far, my mother&#039;s answer was because they&#039;re too many liberal judges in the Supreme Court!  My braincells failed to synapse on that one.

anyways, just a little reminder that though we&#039;ve progressed greatly this last week, they are still idjits out there, who can&#039;t/won&#039;t think on their own!</description>
